 7(4« (letuA+i oj the SeaAa+U With the return of September, school bells summon eager students to St. Mary's for another scholastic year. There, everyone finds God through zealous teachers who daily impart a sound, well-rounded intellectual and moral training. Autumn, prelude to other pleasant seasons, brings a succession of educational strides through the medium of interesting classes and a series of happy moments. Soon, cold winds and crystal snowflakes announce the arrival of Winter. Christmas joys saturate all hearts. At the close of a well-deserved vacation, student life is resumed, and efforts are doubled toward the achievement of successful mid-year examinations. Life at St. Mary's is filled with work, but there is play also. In fact, basketball offers relaxation at the end of a day. In addition, it develops good sportsmanship, arouses a loyal, enduring school spirit. Suddenly, amid the cheers and shouts, the robins chirp. Voices of Spring fill the air. After eight long months of training, musical talents come to the fore in the an- nual Band Concert. Poise and social grace are exhibited at the CCIL Play and History Contests. Through the May Crowning the student body pays a loving tribute to its Heavenly Queen. Each individual, feeling the need for a spiritual check-up, participates wholeheartedly in a three-day retreat. And, with each new day, everyone delves deeper into his books, for all sense the end. Much too soon, lilacs fade, peonies blossom, and sunny Spring curtsies to a warmer Summer. Final exams tell the tale of scholastic endeavors. The return of this season marks, for some, the passage of another scholastic year, and, for others, the end of happy days and the dawn of a new life.
